Hi all, Is there any TIFF viewer out there that really reads and uses the Resolution information of an image? I mean, the viewer whould read the resolution field of a TIFF file, and find out that the image was scanned at 300 dpi, for example. Then, it knows that the monitor has a resolution of 72 dpi (or 96 dpi, or whatever) and rescales the image so that it appears at the correct size. But, if we want to print the image, it will send a full resolution copy to the printer. Anyone knows if such a viewer exists? Anyone is willing to write one? Thanks Iñigo López
